Stephen Marley, perhaps the king's most musically creative son, took the Grammy once again and, ONCE AGAIN, "Mind Control" is the winner, but now in its acoustic version. This multi-instrumentalist's excellent album gave him the air of a star, as if the boy's "name" didn't already weigh enough.
(Disc cover "Mind Control Acoustic")
A member of the celebrated group The Melody Makers since he was seven years old, the producer, singer and composer knew how to mix Reggae, R&B, Rock and Hip-hop rhythms with great skill, in short, a trend easily detected in "Mind Control - Plugado", which has so certainly been followed by other artists such as his own brother, Ziggy Marley.
Stephen Marley defeated great works, such as "Brand New Me" by the legendary Gregory Isaacs, but nothing compares to the 50th edition of the Grammys, where the original version of "Mind Control" left behind none other than Burning Spear, Sly & Robbie, Lee Perry and Toots & The Maytals. Weight name? Quality? Both? Meet the "Mind Controls" winners of the 50th and 52nd Reggae Grammys, and draw your conclusions. Below are the nominees for this edition.
